I gave this some thought a few years back when my left knee was in need of
a rebuild.
These were my thoughts at the time:
The smitty bellhousing would fit a Toyota celica/Supra Auto transmission.
They are still plentiful in wrecking yards as are the coolers and other
hardware. MGC's with auto were pretty rare and as stated, not really great.
Perry,
let me know what you figure out, my hips are th next in need of a rebuild
